Interpretation of the Results
• NOTE: Due t o t he poss ibi li ty of l oos e carbon t hat has become t rapped between t he valve face and seat effect ing thepres s ure readi ngs , when carryi ng out a compres s ion t est and cyli nders are found to have low press ures , ins t al l the s parkplugs , road t est t he vehicle and re-t est the s us pect cyl inders . If the correct pressures are rest ored, no further acti on isrequired.
The indicat ed compress i on pres sures are cons idered wi thi n s pecificati on if t he l owest readi ng cyl inder is wi thi n 75% of t hehighest reading.
If the cyli nder pres s ures are found t o be l ow, carry out a l eakdown t est to det ermi ne the locat ion of t he faul t (i f anyleakback can be heard through t he engine breat her sys tem s uspect the pi st on rings , if any leakback can be heard throught he inlet s ys tem sus pect t he i nl et val ve or seat , if any leakback can be heard through the exhaus t mani fold sus pect t heexhaus t val ve or s eat . If t he meas urements for t wo cyl inders next t o each ot her are bot h t oo low then i t is very likely thatt he cyl inder head gas ket bet ween them is burnt t hrough. Thi s can als o be recognized by t races of engi ne oil in the coolantand/or cool ant i n t he engi ne oil ).
Oil Consump tion Test
The amount of oi l an engi ne uses will vary wit h t he way t he vehi cl e is driven i n addit ion t o normal engine-t o-enginevariat ion. This i s es pecial ly t rue during t he fi rs t 16,100 km (10,000 mil es) when a new engine i s bei ng broken i n or unt ilcert ai n i nt ernal components become condit ioned. Vehicles us ed i n heavy-dut y operati on may us e more oil . The fol lowingare exampl es of heavy-duty operat ion:

Operat ion under varyi ng condi ti ons can frequent ly be mi sl eadi ng. A vehi cl e t hat has been run for s everal t housand miles ons hort t rips or i n below-freezi ng ambient temperat ures may have cons umed a "normal" amount of oil . However, whenchecking t he engine oil l evel , it may meas ure up to the full mark on t he oil l evel indicator due t o dil uti on (condens ati onand fuel ) in t he engine crankcas e. The vehi cl e t hen might be driven at high s peeds on the hi ghway where t he condens at ionand fuel boil off. The next t ime t he engi ne oil is checked it may appear that a l it er of oi l was us ed i n about 160 km (100mi les ). Oi l cons umpti on rat e is about one l it er per 2,400 km (1,500 mil es).

At low engi ne s peed t he volume of exhaust gas l eavi ng the engine is l ow. The vanes are moved toward the cl osed pos it iont o direct t he exhaus t gas fl ow t o t he out s ide edge of t he turbine wheel. The clos ed posi ti on of the vanes creates ares t ri ct ion t o t he gas fl ow and i ncreas es t he gas vel oci ty to the t urbine wheel . The turbi ne wheel s peed is increas ed,cons equent ly producing more charge ai r (boos t pres sure) from t he compres sor.
B - Moderate Engine Speed
As engine s peed and exhaus t gas vol ume increas e, the vanes are moved to the open posit ion t o direct t he exhaus t gasfl ow t oward t he center of the turbi ne wheel . The vanes do not rest ri ct the exhaus t gas flow and therefore exhaus t gasveloci ty is dependant on engine s peed. The t urbi ne wheel s peed is maintai ned due to the i ncreas ed velocit y of t he gas esleaving t he engine and being di rected t oward the center area of t he t urbine wheel .
C - Maximum Engine Speed
At maximum engine s peed the volume of exhaus t gas leavi ng t he engi ne is hi gh. The vanes are moved toward the full yopen pos i ti on and do not affect t he gas vel oci ty. The exhaus t gas fl ow contacts t he center area of t he t urbine wheel tomaint ain t he t urbine wheel s peed and boos t pres s ure from the compress or.
Over-Boost Pressure
Duri ng periods of medi um t o hard accelerat ion, the turbocharger is requi red t o produce a l imit ed period of over-boos tpres s ure from the compress or to meet the current engi ne fueli ng requirement. The ECM wil l reques t and all ow t he REA t omove t he variable vanes t oward t he clos ed posi ti on t o increas e t he vel oci ty of t he already high-s peed turbine wheel. Theover-boos t condit ion is all owed by t he ECM for t he l imi ted period.
Barometric Pressure Sensor
At high al ti tude t he t urbocharger wi ll functi on normal ly, but due t o t he l ower ambi ent ai r pres sure t he turbi ne andcompres sor may tend t o over-speed. A baromet ri c pres sure s ensor i s located i n t he ECM t o prevent over-boost andposs i bl e engine damage occurri ng under t hes e condit ions. The ECM opens t he vari abl e vanes earlier duri ng t he openi ngphas e to s uit the al ti tude of t he vehi cl e.
T urbocharger Lubrication
The rapi d accelerat ion and decelerat ion demands of t he turbocharger rel y on a s t eady flow of cl ean oil. The oi l suppli ed byt he engi ne lubri cat ion s ys tem provides l ubricati on to the t urbocharger shaft and bearings, whi le al so act ing as a cool antfor t he t urbocharger cent er hous i ng.
To mai nt ain the l ife expect ancy of t he turbocharger, t he engine oil mus t be replenished at regular s ervice i nt ervals wit ht he recommended qual it y and quant it y of oil . The oi l mus t have a free-fl ow t hrough the turbocharger and an unres trict edret urn to t he engine oi l pan.

Fuel fired heat er
The FFBH (fuel fired boost er heat er) and St op/Start s ys t em wi ll not operate si mult aneous ly, due to low ambientt emperatures bei ng a fact or in t he funct ion of both sys tems .

Topping up the oil
1. Unscrew the oil filler cap.
2. Add oil to maintain the level between the
MIN and MAX marks or notches on the
dipstick. Clean up any oil spilled during
topping-up.
3. Check the oil level again after 5 minutes.
It is essential to use the correct specification
oil, and to ensure it is suitable for the climatic
conditions in which the vehicle is to be
operated.
Note: The approximate quantity of oil required
to raise the level from MIN to MAX on the
dipstick is 0.8 litres (1.4 pints) - petrol models
or 1.5 litres (2.6 pi nts) - diesel models.
Engine oil specification
Land Rover recommends Castrol oils.
ENGINE COOLANT CHECK
If the quantity of fluid in the coolant
reservoir drops below the
recommended level, an amber
warning indicator in the instrument pack will
illuminate. Stop the vehicle and check the
coolant level.
On vehicles with a message centre, the
message LOW COOLANT LEVEL or COOLING
SYSTEM FAULT MONITOR GAUGE will be
displayed in place of the warning indicator.
Checking the coolant level
The coolant level in the expansion tank should
be checked at least week ly (more frequently in
high mileage or arduous operating conditions).
Always check the level when the system is
cold.
Ensure the coolant level is maintained between
the level indicator marks located on the side of
the expansion tank.
CAUTIONS
Your vehicle warranty may be invalidated
if damage is caused by using oil that
does not meet the required specification.
Failure to use an oil that meets the
required specification could cause
excessive engine wear, a build up of sludge
and deposits, and increase pollution. It could
also lead to engine failure.
Overfilling with oil could result in severe
engine damage. Oil should be added in
small quantities and the level re-checked to
ensure that the engine is not overfilled.
Model Specification
Petrol engine Use only 0W-30 engine oil, meeting ACEA A5 or
B5 specification.
Diesel engine Use only 5W-30 oil meeting Ford 913-B
specification.
CAUTION
Running the engine without coolant will
cause serious engine damage.
